PilotIn-Coding-Standards

PHP Coding Standards of Pilot'in (inspired & respecting mostly WordPress Coding Standards)

Installation steps

• Having composer installed:

Get Composer

• Having PHP Code Sniffer installed:

composer global require "squizlabs/php_codesniffer=*"

• Having WordPress Coding Standards installed:

composer global require dealerdirect/phpcodesniffer-composer-installer phpcompatibility/phpcompatibility-wp squizlabs/php_codesniffer wp-coding-standards/wpcs

• Clone this repo somewhere on your drive (or you can just download this repo and unzip it but it's not going to be synced / updated)
• Get the current path config of phpcs using:

phpcs --config-show

• Copy the paths after "installed_paths:"
• Paste it somewhere and append the path of your folder containing the "PilotIn" folder with a comma

For reference, mine looks like this: C:\composer\vendor/phpcompatibility/php-compatibility,C:\composer\vendor/phpcompatibility/phpcompatibility-paragonie,C:\composer\vendor/phpcompatibility/phpcompatibility-wp,C:\composer\vendor/wp-coding-standards/wpcs,C:\Users\Administrateur\Documents\PLUGINS DEV\PilotIn-Coding-Standards\PilotIn

⚠️ If you have relative paths, replace them by absolute paths!

• Give the new paths to phpcs using this command & change your/paths/goes/here:

phpcs --config-set installed_paths your/paths/goes/here

Example: phpcs --config-set installed_paths C:\composer\vendor/phpcompatibility/php-compatibility,C:\composer\vendor/phpcompatibility/phpcompatibility-paragonie,C:\composer\vendor/phpcompatibility/phpcompatibility-wp,C:\composer\vendor/wp-coding-standards/wpcs,C:\Users\Administrateur\Documents\PLUGINS DEV\PilotIn-Coding-Standards\PilotIn

• Set the default standard as PilotIn using:

phpcs --config-set default_standard PilotIn

• Restart your terminal to be sure everything is up to date & try this command to see if everything is set:

phpcs -i

(You should have "PilotIn" showing & you're good to go 🚀)

Bonus steps

VS Code

• Install wongjn.php-sniffer extension (VS Marketplace)
• Add this to your vscode settings json (Ctrl + Shift + P > Settings json):

"php.validate.executablePath": "C:/Full/Path/To/php.exe",
"php.validate.run": "onType",
"[php]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "wongjn.php-sniffer"
},
"phpSniffer.standard": "PilotIn",
"phpSniffer.executablesFolder": "C:/Full/Path/To/Composer/vendor/bin",

Make sure that your paths (both to php.exe and to the phpcs and phpcbf executables) are correct and absolute. Use the full path every time.

PhpStorm

• Go to Files > Settings > PHP > Quality Tools
